Syntheses of Condensation Polymers by Michael-Type Polyaddition Reaction

Abstract

Syntheses of various types of condensation polymers by Michael-type polyaddition reaction are reviewed. After a brief introduction of the chemistry of Michael-type addition, the polyaddition reactions of Michael donors like diamines and dithiols to various Michael acceptors such as bisacrylamides, bismaleimides, divinyl sulfones, and other reactive divinyl compounds are described.
